Chastain Park

The city’s northernmost tip that still gets to claim ITP status. Built up mostly in the 1940s, the area is largely residential. Chastain has plenty of greenspace thanks to the city’s largest park, full of wooded jogging trails, tennis courts, a horse park, and a beautiful outdoor music venue. But as development ever expands along Roswell Road, new culinary and cultural spots are starting to pop up in this otherwise sleepy area.

The bright red awning, with big and bold, black letters, lets you know in no uncertain terms exactly what you’re here for: “BBQ.” This place is a hidden gem in the city’s barbecue scene. The one-room building looks directly into the kitchen, with just a few tables scattered around, Christmas lights hanging overhead, and chalkboards with instructions on ordering and the latest offerings. When the weather’s nice, the large patio running alongside Roswell Road is as good a spot as any in Chastain for Ray-Bans and a SweetWater.
